I would just like to take this opportunity to thank Vicky and John, the owners of Drovers cottage. Their customer service is exceptional and their property is immaculate. I would describe it as a home away from home. Cosy, comfortable, charming, welcoming and equipped with all you would need for a weekend stay all the way through to a 2 week stay and more. Its the little touches that make the difference, like a home baked cake left in the kitchen for your arrival. I cant recommend this property enough!!! A real gem! :-)

“The photographs did not do this ...”

The photographs did not do this cottage justice. Everything in the cottage was of the highest quality, The location was superb, tranquil settings but close to lots of attractions. The owners went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Home made cake in a tin, tea and coffee and fresh milk were waiting for us. Cannot fault this holiday home.

Features

The property

A truly peaceful and relaxing cottage attached to the owner's home, in the small village of Sutton Mallet in Somerset.

This cosy one bedroom cottage offers the perfect romantic bolthole for a holiday all year round.

Tastefully furnished and beautifully appointed throughout, the open plan living area with a woodburning stove and large sofa is ideal for those cosy nights in after days spent exploring the surrounding area.

Drover’s offers a truly romantic retreat with a beamed first floor bedroom and a pleasant kitchen provides all you need to prepare home-cooked meals when you are not barbecuing on those summer evenings.

On a warm afternoon you can relax outside and enjoy a drink whilst looking out over the lawned garden and extended fields.

As well as being ideally placed to explore the Somerset countryside this lovely cottage is perfectly located for many attractions such as Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole, Wells Cathedral and the sandy beaches of Burnham-on-Sea.

The festivals at Glastonbury and winter carnivals of Bridgewater, together with surrounding towns and villages are all reasons to stay here.

If you need some retail therapy the forever popular Clarks Village in Street is only a short drive together with the vibrant cities of Bath and Bristol.

Locally, amazing walks and cycle trails are waiting to be explored and are a great way to take in the picturesque Somerset levels.

About the location

SUTTON MALLET

Bridgwater 6 miles; Glastonbury 10 miles.

The rural Somerset parish of Sutton Mallet can be found on the low lying land known as Sedgemoor on the Somerset Levels, nestling at the foot of the Polden Hills, six miles from the bustling town of Bridgwater. The Somerset Levels are an Area of Special Scientific Interest, a marshy area intersected by water channels which stretch from the Mendip Hills as far as Taunton, and are internationally renowned for wintering wildfowl and provide a habitat for numerous species of breeding birds. The flat landscape offers great cycling routes, with lovely walks to be had across the nearby nature reserves where you could be rewarded with a view of some rare bird species. The village makes an excellent touring base, with numerous attractions catering for all tastes within a short drive, including a shopaholics paradise at Clarks Shopping Village in Street, and mystical Glastonbury, famous for its Abbey, Tor, and annual music festival. Alternatively, visit the UK’s smallest city of Wells with its beautiful cathedral, the beaches at Burnham-on-Sea and Weston-Super-Mare, spooky Wookey Hole Caves, and Cheddar Gorge, as all are easily accessible. Sutton Mallet makes a peaceful, rural base for a relaxing, enjoyable holiday at any time of the year.
